They said there'd be days like this,
but months?! Come on now...

February went like this:

1. 18 days home, 10 days on the road
2. Valentines day, me at home, him on the road
3. Number of phone calls or celebrations attended (not including fb) for 9 Family and Friend birthdays
4. Cities I slept in, Eugene, Las Vegas, Portland, Seattle
5. Number of Days I was sick
6. Number of holiday's in the month - minus one (come on, this thing started off totally random until I realized the numbers were correlating with the list- this one's just to get us to #7)
7. Amount of deadlines on average I had each week this month at work.

I'm undecided yet if I'm happy that it's now March, cause as things stand right now, I don't think anything's slowing down.
Andy's already fulfilled #5 on his own for March.

Half way to good

I should be doing something else. But this seems more enjoyable.

Things I should be doing right now:


1. Starting the laundry
2. Unpacking from my last trip
3. Cleaning the bathroom
4. Starting dinner
5. Cleaning up the Living room, which mostly means the dining table
6. Yard work
7. Organizing the house
8. Preparing Craig's List ads for stuff we need to get rid of
9. Going through my clothes since I'm going to go buy more since I don't think I have anything to wear, I should really make that statement legit by getting rid of things I really don't wear.
10. Organizing/Cleaning the garage - it doesn't seem like I should do this alone though...
11. Cleaning the kitchen
12. Getting all our stuff ready for taxes

Things I am doing:


1. Reveling in the fact that I fixed the kitchen faucet all by myself (Last time I needed help just to finish the basic job. This time I had to take the whole thing apart again and add grease to the gaskets so the spout would turn side to side without needing the winner from this year's Mister Universe's help.)
B. Procrastinating by writing a blog, duh.


The good thing about a procrastination list is that it can very easily become a handy To Do List. So props to that. What are you procrastinating from as you read this blog?

I swear I believe things will get better

1. This American Life is amazing Episode #375 'Bad Bank' is all about the Bank Crisis. Check it out.

2. The weather thwarted my yard work plans. Oh darn.

3. I bought the wrong stuff to finish fixing the faucet. The grease will corrode the gaskets and that's so not what I want to do.

4. I met the little Mister's little brother, baby M. Photos to come

5. Tom Waits Tribute night is officially over and a success.

6. I'm trying to make up for all the time away from my home by cleaning and fixing and doing yard work today. We shall see...

Heroic Science.: 10th Annual Tom Waits night In Portland, Saturday March 7th

Heroic Science.: 10th Annual Tom Waits night Saturday March 7th

The tribute night is coming to Portland, tonight! Call or text me or him if you want info.

The best medicine

Don't worry. Andy's working on the coffee.

I just spent a glorious morning over on my friend Flo's blog FloParis.net, and although I recommend you check out all her songs and how and why she wrote them, I suggest you take a moment right now and listen to Irrational Fears.

If you're at all like the two people living in this house you'll be singing the first chorus all over town, "I will not be pistol whipped"
Yeah. Check it out.

2. Three jobs we had bid on came back, approved, it's gunna stay busy
3. Some guy is coming by the house today to give us a bid to paint it
4. Hopefully by summer we'll be able to get the house new windows. The ones we've got now have broken seals and don't do their job so well.
5. Our friends just had their baby and I can't wait to meet him and introduce him to the world. (History dictates they make good looking babies.)
6. We had a date day yesterday...all day, on a friday. It included Watchmen, Vietnam Restaurant, and new shoes.
